TRUSTEES OF HENRY FUND MAKE AWARD

The trustees of the Charles and Julia Henry Fellowship announced today the award of the Henry Fellowship of 500 pounds sterling to Lawrence F. Ebb '39, and Ray S. Cline '39, both now finishing their senior year at Harvard.

Although seven awards were made in all, Harvard was the only college to receive two of these honors.

The recipients will have their choice of studying at either Oxford or Cambridge University in England, on any subject they may choose. The fund was created in 1931 by the will of the late Lady Julia Henry for the purpose of "cementing bonds of friendship between the United States and England."

Exchange System

In accordance with the will, three English students will come to Harvard to study while Ebb and Cline are abroad. Two Cambridge men, Philip Marack and Henry Wade, and one Oxonian, Harold Callan, are scheduled to do research here.

Ebb, a senior in Lowell House, was one of eight Juniors chosen last year for Phi Beta Kappa. He prepared for college at Boston Latin where he was an outstanding student. This award is only one of four that he has received while at Harvard. His laurels include the Ames Memorial award, a Coolidge Prize Medal, the Detur Prize, and the Crowinshield Scholarship.

This year he has been the President of the Debating Council and the Maestro of the Lowell House Musical Society.

Cline is a graduate of the Wiley High School in Terre Haute, Indiana. He was captain of his football team and high man in his class. He also got his Phi Beta Kappa key in his third year, and has been self supporting while in college.
